Senior Santa

Donate Now

Give the gift of giving.

Since the beginning of the program, Friends of Seniors has taken 252 local seniors Christmas shopping for their family, friends or for themselves.

Select seniors with limited income who have difficulty getting out are joined by volunteers to buy and wrap gifts, enjoy a turkey lunch, share stories and music- even Santa makes an appearance!

In addition to celebrating the holiday spirit of giving and receiving, Senior Santa offers seniors an opportunity for camaraderie and socialization.

This program can improve the quality of life for participating seniors by alleviating the isolation and loneliness that may be experienced during the holiday season.

From the Community

I cannot thank you enough for executing such a wonderful event yesterday. I spoke with my Grandma last night and she was in awe of what an extraordinary event it was. Getting her out of her daily routine, socializing with other people, sharing her stories, and of course shopping brought her so much joy. Thank you for recognizing this need in the community, and bringing together a community to support it.

I want to thank you for inviting me to your Senior Santa program. What a wonderful surprise! I was picked up, taken for a shopping spree and then a wonderful lunch. Plus pictures with Santa. Thank you again for your kindness.
